As an experienced Clinical Herbalist with years of both hands-on clinical practice and dedicated teaching, I offer a broad range of specialized consulting, workshops, and curriculum development services designed to enrich your school’s herbal education offerings. I believe herbal education thrives when it’s rooted in hands-on experience, traditional wisdom, and a deep relationship with the land.

I partner with herb schools, community programs, and holistic training centers to provide engaging, immersive, and expertly crafted educational experiences for students at every level. Whether you’re looking to enrich your curriculum with guest instruction or seeking a knowledgeable practitioner to lead specialized coursework, I bring a grounded, heart-centered approach to herbal learning.

I can cover a wide range of topics including plant identification, clinical assessment, herbal formulation, medicinal plants for specific conditions and body systems, and much more. My workshops are designed to be practical, dynamic, and tailored to your students' skill levels.

  • I can work with your team to design or refine the existing curriculum. Whether you're developing a comprehensive herbalist program or need to add specialized courses on clinical herbalism, I’ll provide the expertise to ensure the content is thorough, accurate, and aligned with your program’s standards.

  • Provide your students with real-world clinical insights. I offer case study sessions that allow students to analyze and discuss herbal treatments for various health conditions.
